Upon arrival, we immediately felt at ease in the house as there wasn't a formal reception area or the usual defined sections. Since we couldn't find anyone for our check-in, we just roam around the house for the next 15 minutes until we accidentally found the room keys tagged with my name for all 3 of our rooms. After we let ourselves into our rooms, the friendly Mr. Chop appeared to give us a brief orientation with the useful map and address.
When we returned in the evening, we couldn't find Mr. Chop when we had some questions. There were 3 persons chatting in the common area. The 2 Westerners appeared to be guests like us with their attires. The 3rd person, a young man who looked Thai and didn't dressed like a tourist, so I asked if he was our host, Mr. Pakasit. He just smiled and said, "No" and continued chatting with the other 2 guests. I later found out the young man was Mr. Pakasit's son. It's rather odd that the young man didn't ask if I needed any help when I asked for his father. Even if he wasn't working there, it would have been helpful for him to direct me to someone who could help. We had to continue to wonder around to get our answers.
We were fortunate to meet Mr. Pakasit several times the next two days. Together with his wife, his daughter Ms. Fei, and Mr. Chop, their smiles and friendly dispositions made us feel completely relaxed. Both mornings, we weren't in a hurry to go out to the attractions. Instead we took our own sweet time relaxing in the breakfast area with the ample natural light and plants.
FYI: Rooms 2 & 3 are on the lower floor where the upper floor is made of wood, so you'll hear the footsteps and conversations from occupants in the room directly above yours. These 2 rooms have windows directly facing the driveway, so the rooms are exposed with the curtains open. Rooms 9 & 10 are extra spacious with a sitting area.
I certainly look forward to staying in this B&B in the future.
